Objective:To investigate the short-term clinical efficacy of laparo-gastroscopic esophagectomy (LGE).Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clini-copathological data of 11 patients with esophageal cancer who underwent LGE in the Zhongshan Hospital of Fudan University from June 2020 to October 2021 were collected. There were 8 males and 3 females, aged (68±4)years. Sorted by operation time, the sentinel lymph nodes navigation (SLN) was performed since the sixth patient in the cohort, and abdominal surgery and neck surgery were performed simultaneously to complete LGE. Observation indicators: (1) surgical situations; (2) postoperative situations; (3) follow-up. Follow-up was conducted using outpatient examination or telephone interview to detect death of patients during postoperative 30 days. Patients were followed up during postoperative 30 days. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and count data were described as absolute numbers. Results:(1) Surgical situations. Of the 11 patients, 5 cases received SLN with satisfactory visualization, 6 cases did not receive SLN, 1 case terminated the operation as sentinel lymph nodes biopsy showing positive results and the rest of 10 cases completed LGE successfully without conversion to thoracotomy. The operation time and tumor diameter of the 10 patients completing LGE was (204±27)minutes and (2.5±1.0)cm, respec-tively. (2) Postoperative situations. Of the 10 patients completing LGE, 2 cases had pulmonary complications after surgery and recovered well with symptomatic treatment, and none of patient had anastomotic leakage or other serious complication. Results of postoperative histopathological examination showed squamous cell carcinoma in the 10 patients completing LGE. Nine patients were classified as T1b?3N0M0 stage and 1 patient was classified as T1bN1M0 stage. Ten patients completing LGE had R 0 resection and the number of lymph nodes dissected was 14±4. There were 3 cases with nerve bundle invasion, 2 cases with vascular invasion and 5 cases without nerve bundle and vascular invasion. The postoperative treatment time at intensive care unit and duration of hospital stay of the 10 patients completing LGE were (4.0±2.4)days and (7.2±1.5)days. (3) Follow-up. The 10 patients completing LGE were followed up and none of them died during the postoperative 30 days. Conclusions:LGE is safe and feasible. Combined with SLN can guarantee the oncology effect of surgery.

Objective:To investigate the effect of albumin to fibrinogen ratio on the prognosis of patients undergoing radical resection for colorectal cancer.Methods:Clinical and pathological data of 216 patients who underwent laparoscopic radical resection of colorectal cancer at the General Surgery Department of Taizhou People's Hospital from Aug 2015 to Jul 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. Albumin and fibrinogen results within 7 days before surgery was collected. The optimal cut-off point of AFR was determined by Youden index of ROC curve. Kaplan-Meier analysis, univariate and multivariate COX regression models were used to analyze the prognostic factors of OS and DFS.Results:The best postoperative OS threshold of AFR for patients undergoing laparoscopic radical resection of colorectal cancer was 9.43. Univariate analysis and multivariate COX regression analysis showed that age ≤65 years, TNM stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ, and AFR≥9.43 had better OS and DFS (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Preoperative AFR level had a good predictive value on postoperative survival of patients undergoing laparoscopic radical resection of colorectal cancer, and AFR<9.43 was an independent risk factor for postoperative OS and DFS.

Objective:To explore the predictive value of low-dose biphasic (inspiratory and expiratory) CT air trapping sign and semi-quantitative score in predicting abnormal blood gas parameters and progression to severe disease in COVID-19 patients.Methods:Patients with non-severe COVID-19 who were diagnosed by nucleic acid testing and hospitalized in designated hospitals in Wuxi City from January 23 to February 29, 2020 were prospectively and consecutively recruited. All patients received low-dose biphasic CT examination on admission and repeated CT examination at regular intervals during the course. On the inspiratory phase admission of the bipolar CT, the scope of the lesion was evaluated by semi-quantitative score, and the air trapping sign on bipolar CT was assessed. The differences of semi-quantitative score, the presence of the air trapping sign and other clinical factors were compared between the patients with abnormal and the normal blood gas index, as well as between the cases progressed to severe disease and cases without disease progression using the independent sample t-test or χ 2 test. The area under the curve (AUC) of receiver operating characteristic (ROC) and the comprehensive discriminant improvement index (IDI) were used to evaluate the predictive effectiveness of the semi-quantitative scores, air trapping sign, and combination of two factors in differentiating cases with abnormal and normal blood gas indexes, as well as in differentiating cases with and without disease progression to severe COVID-19 cases. Results:In total 51 non-severe COVID-19 cases were included, with 16 cases showed air trapping sign during the first biphasic CT examination on admission. During the course of the disease, there were 13 patients with abnormal blood gas index, and 9 cases displaying air trapping sign (9/13). All 7 cases with progression to severe cases showed air trapping sign (7/7). Patients with advanced age, air trapping sign and higher semi-quantitative score were found more likely to have abnormal blood gas index ( t=3.10, χ 2=9.38, t=3.34, P<0.05); patients with advanced age, underlying diseases, air trapping sign and higher semi-quantitative score were more likely to develop into severe disease ( t=2.68, χ 2=6.65, χ 2=4.25, t=4.33, P<0.05). The AUC of semi-quantitative score, air trapping sign and combination of two factors in distinguishing abnormal blood gas index from normal blood gas index was 0.803, 0.754 and 0.794 respectively. The AUC of semi-quantitative score, air trapping sign and combination of two factors in distinguishing cases with progression to severe cases from non-progression was 0.881, 0.898 and 0.932, respectively. Air trapping sign combined with semi-quantitative score significantly improved the prediction effectiveness of disease progression, compared with semi-quantitative score or air trapping sign (IDI=0.271, 0.117). Conclusion:Air trapping sign and semi-quantitative score might be used as effective indicators to predict the progression of COVID-19 cases, and the combination of these two factors might be more helpful to predict the disease progression.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of polymorphisms of NF-κB rs230521, NF-κB rs4648068 and pregnane X receptor (PXR) rs3814058 on platinum-based chemotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer patients. 
 METHODS: We collected 262 cases of non-small cell lung cancer patients, and then analyzed the genotypes of NF-κB and PXR by MassARRAY method. The impact of polymorphisms on efficacy, gastrointestinal toxicity and hematological toxicity was analyzed by logistic regression.
 RESULTS: Compared to patients with GG genotype, patients with NF-κB rs230521 CC genotype had the higher risk to suffer hematological toxicity (OR=3.485, P=0.011). Patients with PXR rs3814058 CC and CT genotype exhibited higher possibility to suffer hematological toxicity than those with TT (OR=2.045, P=0.048). Polymorphism of NF-κB rs4648068 did not show significant effect on chemotherapy efficacy and occurrence of gastrointestinal toxicity and hematological toxicity.
 CONCLUSION Patients with NF-κB rs230521 CC, PXR rs3814058 CC and CT had higher risk to suffer hematological toxicity during platinum-based chemotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer. A rational dosage and course of treatment should be chosen to protect the patients with high risk genotype suffering hematological toxicity during their platinum-based therapy.

Objective To investigate the clinical features of patients with Polygonum multiflorum preparation-related liver injury with or without positive autoantibody based on propensity score matching, as well as the influence of positive autoantibody on the prognosis of such patients. Methods A total of 364 patients with Polygonum multiflorum preparation-related liver injury who were hospitalized in Beijing Ditan Hospital, Capital Medical University, from August 2008 to June 2021 were enrolled, and according to whether autoantibodies were detected, they were divided into negative autoantibody group (H0 group) with 157 patients and positive autoantibody group (H1 group) with 207 patients. After adjustment for confounding factors by propensity score matching, the two groups were compared in terms of biochemical parameters, severity of liver injury, classification of liver injury, and disease outcome when liver injury reached the peak. The t -test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between two groups, and the Mann-Whitney U rank sum test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between two groups; the chi-square test or the Mann-Whitney U rank sum test was used for comparison of categorical data or ranked data between two groups. The Cox regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors for liver function recovery. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to plot survival curves, and the Log-rank test was used for comparison between groups. Results A total of 98 pairs of cases were successfully matched after propensity score matching. Comparison of biochemical parameters between the two groups at the peak of liver injury showed that compared with the H0 group, the H1 group had significantly higher levels of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), globulin, and total bile acid and a significantly lower level of albumin (all P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the classification of liver injury between the two groups ( P > 0.05), and there was a significant difference in the severity of liver injury between the two groups ( Z =1.710, P =0.045). Antinuclear antibody (ANA) was the main positive autoantibody and accounted for 49%, and there was a significant difference in the severity of liver injury between the patients with different ANA antibody titers ( Z =20.252, P =0.001). Comparison of disease outcome in terms of whether liver function returned to normal within 6 months showed that the normalization rate of liver function within 6 months was 90.8% in the H0 group and 75.5% in the H1 group, and the H1 group had a lower normalization rate of liver function ( χ 2 =8.199, P =0.004). The Cox regression analysis showed that autoantibody (hazard ratio [ HR ]=5.248, 95% confidence interval [ CI ]: 1.554-17.718, P =0.008) and ALP ( HR =1.013, 95% CI : 1.002-1.025, P =0.026) were independent risk factors for liver function recovery. The Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis showed that compared with the negative autoantibody group, the positive autoantibody group had a significantly higher risk of failure in liver function recovery after 6 months ( χ 2 =8.802, P =0.003). Conclusion Autoantibody has no significant influence on the classification of Polygonum multiflorum preparation-related liver injury, and compared with the patients with negative autoantibody, the patients with positive autoantibody tend to have more severe liver injury and a more obvious tendency of chronicity.

ObjectiveTo investigate the differences in clinical features between the primary biliary cholangitis （PBC） patients with negative or positive anti-mitochondrial antibody （AMA） by analyzing related immune and biochemical parameters. MethodsThis study was conducted among the patients who attended Beijing Ditan Hospital， Capital Medical University， from January 2013 to December 2022 and were diagnosed with PBC， and they were divided into AMA negative group with 139 patients （24.5%） and AMA positive group with 428 patients （75.5%）. Propensity score matching at a ratio of 1∶1 was performed with age and sex as matching factors and a matching tolerance of 0.06. Liver function， coagulation， and immune parameters on admission were analyzed， as well as the changes in liver function and other indicators after 6 months of treatment and the response to ursodeoxycholic acid （UDCA） at 6 and 12 months of treatment. The independent-samples t test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between two groups， and the Mann-Whitney U rank sum test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between two groups； the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups. ResultsThere were 139 AMA-negative PBC patients and 139 AMA-positive PBC patients after propensity score matching. Compared with the AMA positive group on admission， the AMA negative group had significantly lower levels of direct bilirubin and globulin （Glo） and significantly higher levels of albumin， albumin/globulin ratio， prealbumin， and fibrinogen （all P<0.05）. After 6 months of UDCA treatment， there were significant differences in Glo and prealbumin between the AMA negative group and the AMA positive group （P<0.05）. Both the AMA negative group and the AMA positive group had an increase in prealbumin after 6 months of treatment， and the AMA negative group had a significantly greater increase than the AMA positive group （U=41.00， P=0.015）. After UDCA treatment for 6 and 12 months， there was no significant difference in treatment response to UDCA between the AMA negative group and the AMA positive group （all P>0.05）. ConclusionAfter matching for age and sex， compared with the AMA-positive PBC patients， the AMA-negative PBC patients tend to have a milder degree of liver inflammation and damage， significantly greater improvements in inflammation and liver synthesis ability after UDCA treatment， and better response to UDCA.
